To all whom it may concern:

Be it known HARRY JAooBs,

- and residents 0 that we, HANNAH JAooBs and citizens of the United States, f Brooklyn, New York, in the outer shell and Secured to the said head 10 in line with the opening 11 is a tube 12, preferably of copper or other metal of high heat conductivity. The said tube 12 forms a 15 and is provided with county of Kings and State of New York, drying chamber have invented certain new and useful Iminlets 13 and outlets ,14 which permit the rovements 1n Hair Drying and Waving entrance and egress of air into and out of Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.

the nature of an improvement upon the dein our application filed on December 14, 1916, bearing Serial and llowed April 12, d, in practice,

the hair is facilitated when in temperature and off by suitable means. provide an apparatus to accomplish this in this invention and] object will be herevice shown an Number 137,026,

We have foun eration of drying the driven a1 the exhaust is drawn has been our how we accomp inafter fully exp In the drawing Our invention relates to imp d described r is raised ob ect lish this lained.

Figure 1 is rovements in hair drying and waving apparatus and 15 in that the opan elevation the said drying chamber 15. The said head 10 is provided with the cut out portions 1 in line with the outlets 14. An outlet 17 is formed shell of the drying unit 9 upon the outer and leads to the there is connected a flexible tube 19 which in turn leads and is connected to an exhaust chamber 20 and exhaust duct 21. The said exhaust chamber 20 may be provided with any suitable exhausting means.

The relative sizes of the exhausting member 20 and air heating and driving units 5 and 6 are not shown. These members are located at some distance from the distributing crown and are diagrammatically shown. The distributing crown is suitably located at about the angle indicated in Fig. 1 and and section of our device. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of part of the appais rigidly suspended from the ceiling or supratus which will be hereinafter designated 3 is a cross section of same taken through line 33 looking in X and Fig. 4 is ill hereinduct through the distributing rings 2, 3

(1 of the said outer shell is the floor by any approve ported upon means.

In operation the person whose hair is to be operated upon is seated in a chair in the usual manner so that the head assumes the position shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 1.

The hair is dampened and curled, in the usual manner, upon the stem which is inserted through the opening 11 into the drying chambers 15; cotton or other suitable fabric, or means, being employed to tightly 'close the opening 11 after the stem with the hair upon it has been inserted.

When all the drying units which are intended to be used are in place and connected the heating and driving members 5 and 6 are set in operation thereby driving the heated air through the duct 1 and distributing rings 2, 3 and 4, into the tubes 8, through the drying units and out through the exhaust tubes 19 and exhausting members 20 and 21. Such of the spouts 7 in the distributing rings, as are not in use are closed by means of a suitable plug or cap.

It is obvious that we may employs various modifications without departing from the spirit of our invention. We do not thereand - ing stem having hair stems'having hair curled thereon, the said drying units having air .inlets andair 0ut- K fore Wish to be understood as limitin ourselves to the particular construction s own. at we claim as Our invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:

' In a hair drying and Waving apparatus, a drying unit adapted to engage a Windwound thereon, means for supplying a current of heated air to the said drying unit and means for exhausting the air from the said drying unit. v

2. In a hair drying and Waving apparatus, drying units adapted to engage Winding lets formed thereon, means for forcing heated a1r under pressure into the said drying units and means for exhausting the air from the said drying units.

3. In a hair drying and waving apparatus, a double Walled drying unit adapted to engage a winding stem having hair Wound thereon, mean for supplying a current of heated air to the said drying unit and means for permitting the egress of'the air from the said drying unit.

4. In a hair drying and Waving appara tus, a plurality of double Walled drying units adapted to engage winding stems having hair Wound thereon, meansfor supplying currents of heated air tothe said drying units and means for exhausting the air from the said drying units. v
